If you didn't have issues, consider yourself lucky.
I'm must be lucky with my F30. 18,000 miles so far and not a single issue of any kind.
I hope you can get your rattle resolved and you can enjoy your new car.

Oh, it had problems. But they were mechanical. I replaced the whole cooling system on that car with all aluminum parts. Valve cover gaskets, valley pan gasket, interior door handles multiple times, MAF, etc. And thats not even counting the Dinan stuff. But it didn't rattle. And every car I've owned since has rattled like crazy, regardless of who made it.
